ATHENS
The goal of The Hellenic Olympic Committee is to make the Stadium a main attraction and to promote the athletic spirit to the youth by organising athletic and cultural events for the children.
The Panathenaic Stadium has a long and interesting history that spans throughout the centuries. It was constructed in the 4th century B.C. and was used to host events related to the celebration of the city of Athens, the “Great Panathenaia”. During its long history, the Stadium has seen major changes; in the late 19th century, the Stadium underwent major reconstructions and took its final form.
